1- This forrest is about 20kms distance to the Patagonian desert.
2- Seba´s first Glacier "Grande"
3- Klaudia, Stefan and Sally still excited - will the clouds lift?! No, they didn´t...
4- Sally and me next to the fridge (I felt the Galcier from kilometers distance...). This Glacier is part of one of the biggest ice fields in the world.
5- tough guy looking cool passing the glacier´s stream (cold)
6- Cerro Solo, "only" about 1500m high, with it´s own little Galcier.
I met nice group of people in th hostel from England, Austria and Germany and we made a tour in the afternoon. Just when we left the hostel, the heavy rain stopped and the longer the day the more the sky cleared up.
The village of El Chalten is only 400 meters above sea-level, but the peaks El Torro and FitzRoy are far above three thounds. They are extremly difficult to climp, as you might imaging, as they risein 400 meters 3kms high. We made a trekking to El Solo and the Glacier El Grande, watching the rocks, fauna, flora, rivers, glaciers. Even at the end of the day it did not to clear up to see El Torro, but it is very rare anyway. Rarely anybody sees them.
